Introducing our incredibly powerful BE – LINK Bluetooth Sound System for your helmet. Full face, skate, dirt – absolutely any helmet – it’s all the same to us. Our system’s 9 hours of battery life will keep you rocking through any full day of riding. Our 30mm drivers packs a huge punch in a tiny package, delivering music with an audio range unlike anything you’ve heard before. We all know that real athletes need to stay connected to their surroundings while they tear it up. Headphones isolate you from the sound of the street, the tires on the dirt, or the board on the snow. BE – LINK turns your helmet into a personal surround sound system, that still let’s you hear what’s around you. The sensation is amazing. We’ve created a soundtrack for your life. Your sporting experience will never be the same.

As a backer of the previous campaign, I bought mine to use with my half helmet when I ride my Can Am Spyder. Unfortunately, I still haven't figured out how to add the helmet mount; the padding in my helmet doesn't come out. So....I have rarely used them. In this next campaign, please give focus to a helmet mount that really is easily adaptable to this type of helmet. Thank you and good luck.

Any ideas when the Gen4 kickstarter is going to kick off?

The silver and red is nice but it would be even nicer to have other color combinations like blue and yellow? Orange and black, red and yellow, green and yellow etc.

I would like to see the next be link be flatter on the backside. When you put them in your motorcycle helmet you don't provide enough Velcro for the be link. When you attach then inside the helmet they should have a solid adhesion. Not just a little piece of Velcro. As you put the helmet on the be links move around. They should stay in place. So you have to put your helmet on very carefully not to make the headphones come apart from the mounting pieces of velcro

I love the headphones includes the different ways of us of using them. Besides the wish, that the batteries should last longer I have a problem with mine, that being switched off (I receive the 'bye-bye' message) the headphones still drain the battery. So the only way to keep them juiced up is to permanently hook 'em up to the loading cable, which isn't good either.

Was really loving the replacement Be-Link I received (the first one didn't work), but then my dog got its jaws on it while my back was turned and ripped the ear piece with the controls on it apart in seconds. Oh, well. I guess I've learned my lesson. No plastic headphone devices for me.

@Ian +1 for either separate controls or at least the power button on opposite side so can easily be powered on/off in motorcycle helmet

Review from Kickstarter

So, I absolutely love the beanie for this headset. Putting the BELink inside my motorcycle helmet is a whole other ballgame. The speaker pieces are too thick and cause severe pain from the helmet pressing them into my ears. The outer curve of the plastic casing prevents them from sitting flush against the inside of the helmet properly as well, so they often get pushed off the Velcro when I try and put my helmet on with them installed. I think a motorcycle helmet specific version would be much better, with the speakers being thinner, and possibly mount the receiver and controls between the two speakers, so the buttons can be accessed while the helmet is being worn.

I received the replacement for one of my two seemingly faulty kits and, indeed, they were faulty. The new kit has passed left-right test very well and the sound is really good (with beanies, not tested with helmets). Thanks guys.

Review from Kickstarter

Mine work well and I'm happy with them. Didn't get my beanie though.

Review from Kickstarter

Also, since this is Kickstarter, why not go for titanium, aluminum, or carbon with an all-closed design? Limits risks of water damage and knowing this crowd, we'll fund the kazooie out of it

Edward Yeung

Review from Kickstarter

Been using them for nearly a month now. notes: 1. sound quality is acceptable. For audio designed to be used outside/in tougher circumstances, it's been doing its job impeccably. 2. The Velcro stickers only work well on flat, non-porous surfaces. Insides of a regular helmet (Foam) require additional adhesive support, like epoxy or superglue. 3. The Kradles are unwieldy and slightly difficult to use. The straps scratch and there is an awkward bend when installed. They are great for keeping the headphones against your ears :) 4. Mic is near useless, which is ok since I really shouldn't be talking to someone while cycling in traffic or snowboarding down a slope. 5. Some way to use Siri/assistants would be nice. That'll require a better mic and a new button system, but it'll be worth it. All in all, great product, could use some design fine-tuning

@eric, check the two channels. In my case the left channel is too poor in quality then it ruins the entire experience. But i admit I only used it on beanies so far

Eric Castro

Review from Kickstarter

after a few days using it on my helmet, I have to say I'm very disappointed by the sound quality. I wasn't expecting BOSE-like quality but at least a match for apple's regular headphones, which are still better. I was expecting something I could use on the road on my helmet and still be safe, so I can hear cars and things happening around. but the only way I can get a somewhat decent bass response, is if I adjust and push both headphones against my ears, which renders them very unsafe as I won't be able to hear the road anymore. If I use them at a safe distance from my ears, the sound is crappy, like chinese 3 dollars headphones crappy... campaign video was a little bit too misleading in advertising these as having outstanding sound quality.

Review from Kickstarter

Contact them. They are really fast in replying or at least they were with me on the issue I am having. Btw can somebody here also check if left and right channels are the same. I have two pairs and the left side has no lows and cracking highs while the right one sounds very nice.

Review from Kickstarter

Received my BE-Link today, haven't tried them out yet. But I didn't receive the beanie.

Francesco

Review from Kickstarter

I am very disappointed. My two just both have the same problem, the left channel is good. Alive with nice tonality and depth. The right one is cranky and horrible. I will drop the creator an email to see what we can do.

Review from Kickstarter

I received my two units. Quick usage, seems ok. But I will be doing a proper testing in the next couple of weeks.

Lauren King

Review from Kickstarter

My two units arrived, and the packaging is very nice. Unfortunately, one of the BE-LINK units doesn't seem to be functioning properly: the sound from it is constantly popping and buzzing and it drops in and out, no matter what device I connect it to, and it has a lot of difficulty connecting. The external power stick is also a bit iffy (it charged up just fine the first time I used it, went to blue light, and now it won't charge back up - the light is staying red and will not turn blue no matter how long I leave it on the charger, no matter how many times I take it off and put it back on, etc). Overall, I'd have to say I'm not super satisfied, since I currently have only one working unit, and an external power stick that won't charge. Also, NEITHER unit will connect to my Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 with any consistency, which is strange, since other bluetooth devices I have connect to the Tab S 8.4 just fine.

Review from Kickstarter

My unit still not work properly. I use it only three time and it is not best audio experience in my life. Any help with my unit?

Andrew Lynam

Review from Kickstarter

Tried it in my full face helmet today and the sound is good but the mic can't pick up my voice. Also I noticed my voice very muffled using the beanie as well. The other person can't understand what I'm saying. I think the mic should have been placed towards the front. The way the be-link is supposed to be mounted with the cable going behind your head the mic is situated at the back. I think the next generation should work on the moving the mic. Maybe even a short cable for the mic to use in full face helmets. The mic needs unobstructed access to your voice. All in all a very cool device! Now I can rock out while riding my monster S4R!!

Just got my 2 pairs today. Awesome device! Sounds great in the beanie. Yet to try it in my full face helmet.

Review from Kickstarter

I thought in the original blurb these units could dandelion them together to speak with a pillion on motorbike. Wheres that function?

Does anyone know how to reach these guys? I don't think they read their email.

Review from Kickstarter

I just got my BE- LINK, but it doesn't pair with anything, not to the iPhone, IPad, or other gadget. It just turn on and the light blinks red to blue all the time but it doesn't appear in the Bluetooth of the iPhone or IPad. ¿What should i do?

Mark Mathieson

Review from Kickstarter

Got mine today! October delivery when December was estimated! Good work! And they're awesome!! Wish I'd got a few now. One for beanie, one for helmet, one for mate's helmet... Sound is great for the form factor. Just have to jiggle them a bit to get them to sit in a good position for best sound. My favourite thing is privately listening to music in my beanie, low enough so no-one can hear, then just randomly answering the phone and talking to thin air. Too cool. I love 'em! Thank you, BE guys! You rock!! All Kickstarter projects should turn out this well. You guys are a shining example! Well done! Thank you!

Eric Castro

Review from Kickstarter

I received mine, but the only way I can get a good bass response is if I push both speakers against my ears, which is obviously not the ideal fit because it would block sound coming from the street and would render it very dangerous to use when on the road. the kradles keep them safely attached to my helmet, but they seem way too far from my ears, losing all bass and thus getting a terrible sound quality. what am I doing wrong ?

Review from Kickstarter

just wanted to say that after testing the be-link for a couple weeks, it's really good for listening to stuff inside a full-face motorcycle helmet but had to play around a bit to find a decent fit. otherwise, pretty happy w/ the product

Review from Kickstarter

Hi, I just received it today. I have a question about the rechargeable battery pack that came in the package, is there some sort of external light to tell if the battery is fully charged or not? I don't see one, but I could be looking in the wrong spot.

Thanks for input, we actually were using a softer material But opted for a higher quality material for better wear.. Would love for you post a review on amazon

Review from Kickstarter

Road using my BE-LINK for first time. Worked flawlessly. Only suggestion would be to use a soft web material on the ear side of the kradle for better sound. Other than that I am a happy camper/biker.
